So this may not be posting.

I ate too many carbs at bedtime and the FBG was 130.
BP was good.

So I'll hold off the carbs and likely get a 120 or 110 tomorrow
or so I hope. I exercise some today. I failed to cook the
fenugreek.

Google is sluggish so I can't link to my previous posting.
My BG is now 81 down from nearly 200 after a sweet ethanol
bearing drink. I've never seen it this high and the drop is
interesting. Will it keeping going down? Yikes.

How much sugar in the drink? How quickly did you drink it? How long
after drinking it did you test? Do you usually test at that time?

My own reaction to sweet drinks on an empty stomach can be very rapid
-- a fast rise to a sharp high peak followed by a rapid fall. It
typically all happens fast enough that if I had simply waited another
fifteen minutes before testing (such as testing one hour after the
drink instead of at 45 mins) instead of an alarming BG near 200 I
would only have seen a comforting sub 140 reading.
